USS Indianapolis found
Quote | Reply
Here's an interesting one for history buffs. The USS Indianapolis wreck was discovered after 72 years.

Apparently the ship sank too fast to get out a distress signal. I would have thought that would be the first thing that they would do once hit.

The story of the USS Indianapolis is one of the greatest true survival stories ever told. Get a book and read about these brave men. After the ship was sunk the second terror began:

"Drawn by the carnage of the sinking, hundreds of sharks from miles around headed towards the survivors.

"They were continually there, mostly feeding off the dead bodies. Thank goodness, there were lots of dead people floating in the area.""We were sunk at midnight, I saw one the first morning after daylight. They were big. Some of them I swear were 15ft long," remembers Cox.

But soon they came for the living, too."

"The great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."
